Pet care experience

My vet does not believe in kennels

I treat my dogs like my children. My dogs are living with my ex husband and I want to share my love for dogs with yours. My biggest fear was a dog sitter would not recognize if my dog got sick while I was away. My vet does not believe in kennels and we have followed his advice. It makes me much happier knowing they are not in a concrete cage all day. I had been looking into opening a dog day care but this is more rewarding. I will treat your pet like my own. I am pretty much available 24/7 in my home. Your pet will have the run of my house.

Debra was great with our Roxy. We live in a fairly rural area, so Roxy does not get a lot of interaction with others, but we do know that she does not play well with other dogs, so it was great to hear Debra discuss what her plans were and that she had a nice fenced in back yard that Roxy could run around in without any chance encounters. In talking with her it was obvious that she has a lot of experience with dogs and we could tell from the daily updates and photos that Roxy was in the best of hands. This was by far the most comfortable we have felt with someone watching Roxy and could tell after picking her up she was well cared for. At kennels or other boarding places she always was a bit skiddish or even sick, but picking her up from Debra she was right back into her normal routine, was healthy, and didn't miss a beat. We are so greatful to Debra and will be using her again.

Deb was great with our fang. Kept us informed about how things were going and constantly sent pictures. I would recommend here without reservation.

Debra was great! We left her for a week with both a dog and a cat. the dog suffers from separation anxiety whenever I am gone overnight. Debra kept him busy and content. After the 2nd day, don't think he missed me at all. She sent pictures and feedback everyday, and the house was in perfect condition when we returned. I will definitely contract with her again!

Debra was awesome!! We don't travel much because of our Roxy cat. Roxy is very shy around people and is always requiring our singular attention. We often worry about her when we leave our house for a short trip to the beach. Debra put our mind to ease. She is very conscientious and caring. She stayed in contact daily with us to relieve our anxiety about taking a 4 day trip back home to visit family and friends. Roxy was receptive to her care, never missed a meal or treat. Our home was left in immaculate condition as we left it. We highly recommend Debra for all your Rover Needs.
